In October, Moray College, in collaboration with DHI and local health and care partners, will launch a new short online module titled "Digital Essentials for Carers."
This course is designed to empower those who provide care in Moray—whether paid, unpaid, or volunteer—with the digital skills needed to enhance their caregiving.
The module consists of four short units that focus on the rapidly evolving role of technology in health and care, offering practical insights into how digital tools can improve the quality of care delivery.
By completing this course, learners will not only boost their confidence in using digital solutions but also gain a deeper understanding of the impact and benefits of digital health and care.
As learners progress through the course, they can earn digital badges for each completed unit and will receive a digital certificate upon finishing the entire course. These micro-credentials serve as a testament to the learner's enhanced skills and knowledge in digital caregiving.
To celebrate the launch of this course, DHI and the Moray College team are inviting everyone interesting in enrolling – or finding out more about the course - to attend an informal event on Friday 25th October in Moray College in Elgin.
